The Friends of the Spotswood Public Library is a volunteer organization dedicated to helping the library support the local community. Since 1996, the Friends have initiated fundraising activities in order to sponsor programs and lectures that are beyond the scope of the municipal library budget.
In 2021, the Friends celebrated twenty-five years of success. Through their fundraising efforts, the Friends have provided a TV for the meeting room, a glass-fronted display case, end-panels for book stacks, window treatments, and a Cricut machine. The Friends also provide an annual scholarship for a graduating Spotswood High School senior. With continued fundraising efforts, the Friends hope to do even more for the library in the future.
Support the library by supporting the Friends. Please fill out the application/renewal form and return it to the library.
